Hi, I just saw that it is allready possible to root evo 3D and instal custom roms and i just wonder if there is any roms that will allow me to connect wiimote to my phone for playing Emulator games...

Thanks alot,sorry for bad english and noob question(if its noob ofcourse :) )
[Optimus One, P500, V General] PrometheanGeek:
I've tried flashing multiple ROMS from both CWM and AmonRa and always have the same problem.

When the phone reboots, I get the standard LG logo, followed by a grainy, monochrome version of the logo (cyan on black), and then the ROM boots up with the same cyan-only monochrome look. I can't get the display to show properly.

Going back to stock by restoring my NAND backup brings the display back to normal. I'm not sure which step I'm missing. Can anyone lend a hand?

** This has happened on 2 different units.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] sweetnsour:
what rom are you trying to flash? did you wipe data/factory reset, cache, and dalvik cache before flashing the custom rom? if you did, well its probably a bug in the rom since you said it happened on two different phones
[Optimus One, P500, V General] PrometheanGeek:
I tried open optimus

and

I'm looking at other ROMs to try, just in case I managed to get 2 buggy ROMs, but it doesn't look promising

And yes, I did the factory and cache wipes before every flash

UPDATE:

Just tried with 0x0v3rfl0w with the same results. My last few flashes have also led to crashes at boot up (The application "Settings"...) and the ROM not being interactive.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] sweetnsour:
you are trying to flash a rom that is not compatible with your phone. these roms are only compatible with the p500 and p509
[Optimus One, P500, V General] PrometheanGeek:
Can you suggest a ROM that's P505 friendly? I can't seem to see any that are clearly labeled.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] sweetnsour:
i dont think there are any custom roms for p505 (at least none that i know of)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcored:
Something strange happened to my SGS about 3 times over the last few months.

1 – When I tried to use the SGS after a few hours lying on the table, the screen was blank even after pressing the Home button or power button. I tried calling the mobile from another phone it was not out of service but I heard no ringtone playing from the SGS. After a hour or two it just came back into full display.

2 – Couple of weeks earlier, I was charging the SGS and when I checked back the screen was blank. I tried pressing many buttons but it never came back in to full display. I removed the battery and put it back on and it started.

3 – Just yesterday the screen was blank when I checked in the morning. I pressed the power button for more than 4 seconds and did that again and then the phone powered on.

Has this kind of issue happened to any of you with the SGS?

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djice000:
Are you on any custom firmware at all?? I suggest....if you are, reflashing back to stock, then rooting again, then flashing custom firmware again, but before you flash custom, go to mounts and storage, format system, data, cache and datadata, then wipe dalvik cache too. Can you confirm whether you can enter download mode?? Cheers bud :)

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcored:
I am not on a custom firmware. It is using standard Android 2.3.3 for Samsung Galaxy S. Yes I can do the three button recovery mode :)

1. Power Off

2. Press and hold Volume Up + Home Key

3. Continue holding those buttons and then press and hold power.

4. When you see the logo pop up release power ONLY

5. Keep holding two buttons from step 2 until you enter recovery mode.

[Epic 4G General] Blitzpwnage:
Hey everyone. My epic recently took a tumble and the external speaker doesn't work...or should I say makes horrible crackling noises when there is sound going through it. My question is should I attempt to repair this myself or should I take it to a sprint store. I don't have insurance on it.
[Epic 4G General] Killasmoke:
Try & go to radio shack & see if you can put insurance on it then wait a week & go to sprint store & get a new one! If they can't fix it then they give you a new phone but I still think you will have to pay around 100$ but it beats paying around 500$ for a new one this is my first phone I ever put insurance on!

[Epic 4G General] wannabesean1123:
I just had the speaker on mine go out and I took it in. They tried to replace the speaker first, but that didn't fix the problem, so they ordered me in a new one. Charged me $35. I don't have insurance.
[Epic 4G General] Art2Fly:
Right now you can sign of for the total protection plan. Do that at sprint.com, then go in and get I repaired for free... is only $8 per month...
[Epic 4G General] ControlledChaos:
I have the EXACT same problem. I don't mind fixing stuff myself, but I can't find the speaker. Are there any other places that sell them. The one you listed is only for dealers, they have a 5 per order minimum.
[Epic 4G General] Seegy24:
Like some others said if you go to an actual sprint store with a service tech they may fix it for 35 bucks. I dropped mine broke screen and the earpiece and a little sensor they fixed it all for 35 bucks no insurance. I got lucky someone was sending an epic in with all the parts I needed but it is worth a shot.

The rumors are indeed true, we repair for $35. Hell, we even exchange for $35 so long as it's not liquid, a shattered screen (sometimes) or purely cosmetic.

mengtor.com is also a great place to order replacement parts for ANY phone.

edit - btw the antenna HAS the seaker connected to it from what im seeing. same thing happened to me a while ago and the tech told me the epic has had that happen alot, apparantly the speaker tends to blow fairly easy

there is 2 way you could roll back your phone...

1-restore your phone through zune...(if your last update was 7008 it's better u do it...)

2-if restoring doesn't work(doesn't make ur phone ver 7008) u have to install a rom...
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sgilbert1967:
OK guys im really screwing my Nook Color up. First I used the size specific images for my 4gb sandisk and the lastest cm7 nightly still zipped up moved over. Booted to what I assume is CWM on the SD card and installed however instead of Installing the CM7 to the SD it over wrote the Nooks internal memory!!!! I got the stock image back on there then found this thread....

Everytime I try to use that loader it partitions my SD card to 107mbs and there seems to be nothing I can do about it. What am I doing wrong? I have my stock image restored but I think im missing a step to just put the OS on the SD and boot from the SD card so I can tinker....

If you downloaded the correct "generic-sdcard" image file from verygreen, I doubt that you can install it into the internal memory since it's fully automatic and require no human finger touches/presses anything except power the Nook back on.

You must have downloaded a wrong file.

If you asked about why your "boot" is only 117MB then the answer is simple, because it is what it is and it is normal. The rest of your 4GB uSD is still unallocated and needs to be enable to use.

I can't get the app "HDR Camera" to show up on the market from my rooted eris. I installed the eris market patch and Skype is showing up, so is more than 7 or 8 "US Bank" showing up, but not HDR Camera. Have they dropped out or something? Anyone know what might be going on?

Thanks...

no hdr camera apps show up for me in the market.
[Droid Eris General] connortn:
Rickyjohn... Do you know how I can get this on my eris? I tried the market patch mentioned here on another post that was suppose to allow me to see all the apps, rebooted, waited till after midnight as they said you need to do sometimes (something about the clock) and still cannot see HDR Camera. I can see it while visiting the market from my laptop, just not my eris.

Suggestions?
[Droid Eris General] rickyjohn:
just download the apk i provided onto your laptop. sync your phone with your laptop. click and drag the apk onto the root of your sd card. then navigate to the file using a file manager program, i recommend "astro", free from market. click the apk and hit the button "open app manager" and install. and then u good to go! let me know how it goes:D

Oh! I didn't see the link at the bottom of your post :-)

[Droid Eris General] klobkelosh:
If anyone is following this thread anymore -- what version of the market are you using and does it recognize the HDR camera app as compatible with the ERIS? I'm on condemndedsoul's cm7 rom. I saw this thread last week and downloaded the app from the market with no problems (cool by the way). Well, now the new market has been forced on me and i can no longer download in the market. It recognizes the app as installed, but if i uninstall it will not let me re-install it, there's just no install button. Same problem on a couple of other apps (facebook, documents to go, android agenda widget). The web market says that the HDR Camera app is not compatible with the device. Your help in diagnosing is appreciated!
[Droid Eris General] rickyjohn:
In the past no HDR cameras shown up for me in the market. But when i seen your post I looked in the market and WTH!, i have one free and one pro available. So uninstalled the one i had and went in to the market and installed the HDR Camera+ and it works with no problems. Im running GSB v3.8 by workshed. My market version is 2.3.6. And in the web market both the HDR camera apps show up. Your Rom or market version maybe....but just guessing.

As it turned out, it was my rom. All fixed, but thanks for the response!

[HTC EVO 3D] libai8268:
Alright, let's be honest. HTC is not famous for its camera but sense 3.0 really stands out. Therefore, I am really cool to say my EVO 4G's camera really sucks even it is equipped with 8MP camera. My old nokia n95 8g with 5MP can take better pictures than evo 4g.

Now with my new phone which is EVO 3D, I am really satisfied with its ability taking good 5MP pictures. It's always focused now compared to evo 4g. However, one day I was at a bar and try to record a video of my friends playing music. My friend was using iphone 4 and I used evo 3d to shoot the video. The quality of evo 3d is not bad but somehow I see the neon sign is overexposed compared to iphone 4. I tried to change the setting but in vain. But iphone 4 doesn't seem to have this problem.

Right now I can only show my videos since I don't have the videos from my friend. Once I got it, I will post it here right away. At the top right corner, you can see overexposed budweiser sign. Iphone 4 managed to get the sign clearly.

Here's the link

youtube.com/watch?v=ZFpsZtmuzIw

Just wondering if anybody really does the comparison of the cameras between EVO 3D and Iphone 4? I would like to see some real "AMATEUR" pictures and videos. I don't need a professional fanboys or fangirls to do a lot of adjustment before taking the pictures and videos in order to bias the review. Thanks
[HTC EVO 3D] klbjr:
Don't have any pics on hand but a girlfriend of mine has the iPhone 4 & we battle all the time. But sorry to say, while the 3D has improved on the OG 4G its still not as good as the iPhone 4. There was another post on here with people doing a lil comparison. Some of them tended to think that the hardware was just as good, it was HTC's software that ruined the camera. I can't say either way and don't know how they could either, since nobody has ever run the cameras with different software, but out of the box, the iPhone 4 is still tops when it comes to pics/videos.
[HTC EVO 3D] jgalan14:
+1 got an iPhone 4 myself and the camera is really good. But the. EVO 3d is not bad tho better then that evo 4G imo

The stock camera in 2.1 was the best, but now I am noticing a severe deterioration in quality after upgrading to GB. Night photos are completely unusable after upgrading to GB - there is severe noise reduction applied as default and the pictures look like some artist's water-colored images. I wish i could revert to the 2.1 firmware :(

Will post a comparison soon...

Hei, you're good at making photos, so i suppose you're also good with photoshop and stuff.

Because there is a slight chance that there are some ..... how should we call them.... people who don't understand something when they don't see it with their own eyes.... why don't you make a picture of camera app and insert numbers to describe each feature and which is where.

[XPERIA X10 General] Bwyan Benton:
Up in my first post I wrote how I setup my stock cam.

there all in order according to your camera app starting from the top to the bottom, then in the additional settings.

If you use a different camera app, and wanna know what button is doing, just ask (:

Oh! ps. I noticed your set on infinity focus in that screenshot,,,which wouldn't work out so well being so close. you would want macro. Which is the very top box on your camera screen (:

[XPERIA X10 General] Lakata:
m8 the shire quality of the images is much much much time better with vignette than the stock camera app mainly coz the stock camera app compresses the pictures a lot more and the quality is a lot worst than those taken with vignette for instance i took the same picture with the stock app and vignette and the truth is ht picture with the stock camera is 2.8mb a lot worse and the one with vignette is 5.6mb ... sooo .. dunno what u compared but m8 from my experience your not right for shire quality of the images, about the options of the app i agree with u but not for the quality taken with the stock app its poor .For instance i was on the same options that u mentioned and me and my gf who has 6700 nokia compared pictures and i was astonished how bad is the quality untill i found vignette - the best app for taking quality images for me :)
[XPERIA X10 General] diimaan:
while taking pics in night try night landscape! if it's outdoor!

suggested by mode from esato!

you can check few pics in here
[XPERIA X10 General] Bwyan Benton:
Nightime photography is my favorite. However on this phone without manual controls of aperture, shutter speed and ISO...you can only do so much.

If you shooting handheld at night,, you better have a VERY steady hand. Otherwise mount your phone.

Leave the EV at 0 and adjust from there. White balance makes a massive difference at night...which most of the time (not always) will be incandenscent white balance.

Use infinity focus at night because the X10 just wont be able to focus properly anyways. Unless you have significant lighting. I still stick with infinity anyways lol.

Good thing about infinity focus, is you can hold the shutter button half way as if you were focusing and move around with it held half way til your ready to snap your shot then just press the shutter the rest of the way.

But yeah, the sensor is only so good on this phone.
[XPERIA X10 General] riginal:
That's what I thought about Vignette too & frankly I love that app & its effects hehe.

But I'll try playing with these settings in stock cam & see what'll happen.
[XPERIA X10 General] beanoguy:
Honestly tho, taking phone cameras out of the picture, it's difficult to take nice pictures in low light conditions, even with a DSLR.

Essentially, there are several factors that enable you to take good low light photos, such as longer exposure times (allowing more light to hit the sensor) the use of tripods (a very steady hand) and/or a flash for a light source.

Even your breathing will give camera shake resulting in a blurry picture.
[XPERIA X10 General] clixt:
Agreed, the X10 is powerful enough to take great photos and it's up to the user to make the picture look awesome.

Here's the one I took and post processed with Lightroom 3.
[XPERIA X10 General] Bwyan Benton:
You better have a steady hand in night landscape mode lol.

But it does work well
[XPERIA X10 General] Bwyan Benton:
A quick look looks like you took the same shot 4 times but messed with white balance.

1st pic is way to orange

2nd pic looks to pink

3rd pic looks realistic

4th pic looks more noisey

[XPERIA X10 General] Haldi4803:
I Never wanted to make a Foto from my keyboard ^^ just hat nothing else to aim at for making a screenshot. My thoughts behind that were, that if there are people who can make 8mp 16:9 Fotos, there sure are some who cant find the EV+- button ;)

Edit: The Sensor isn't that much different from a Normal sensor... so it should somehow be possible to manually set the exposure time, because the camera.apk is also sending the correct time to the sensor. If we somehow could... hack?.... the camera.apk and look how it works, a custom Foto app should be posssible which let you change the exposure time. Btw, correct me if i'm wrong, but i thought the phone photo sensor has a fixed aperture right?
[XPERIA X10 General] Bwyan Benton:
Yep! I wish we had a bulb mode on this phone lol
[XPERIA X10 General] diimaan:
oh yeah!

long exposure time, ultra steady hands required! ;)
[XPERIA X10 General] Bwyan Benton:
But u cant take a 16:9 8mp photo...i explained that in another thread earlier. Once you go to 16:9 it becomes 6mp regardless of what your settings are. The ev control is on the main camera screen and looks like this

EV+/-
[XPERIA X10 General] Bwyan Benton:
Or to keep it simple, tripod and shutter release add on lol
[XPERIA X10 General] Bwyan Benton:
Your absolutely entitled to your opinion.

I should add tho, just because vignette gives you larger files doesnt mean better quality. My old sony dsc-n1 is a 8mp point and shoot and gives me roughly the same size photos as my x10, compare that to my other super zoom which is a 12.2 mp camera which gives me 6mb photos...the sony camera even with the smaller size photos eats that super zoom alive in quality/detail.
